5800 XM - GPS not working...(Firmware V.40)

Updated to V.40 today thro NSU...

 

Now my GPS not working... I updated the maps v.3.01 using SW update.

 

I tried all the possible ways in the handset and GPS is not working... (Even Google maps says GPS has problem)..

In the location - GPS Data - Position - Satellite status - It finds few satellites but always shows Waiting for GPS

 

In Maps, Geoposition: No GPS fix in the dashboard.

 

Anyone have this problem or anyone knows how to solve this??

 

Any help appreciated....

Re: 5800 XM - GPS not working...(Firmware V.40)

The 5800 has always had an issue with slow sat locks.  Can you post more details, for example: what are the exact error messages?  Are you using A-GPS or not?  And of course, try this several times and give the phone enough time to get a sat lock.  Hopefully it's a transient issue.
